Thus, sup-pose we wish to maximise a function of two variables and that the value of this function also depends on a parameter, a: f (x1, x2, a). This

The definition of the variance of a random variable can be used to show a number of additional results. a. Show that Var(x) =E(x2) – [E(x)]2.b. Use Markov’s inequality to show that if x can take on only non-negative values, This result shows that there are limits on how often a random variable can be

In footnote 7 we showed that for a utility function for two goods to have a strictly diminishing MRS (i.e., to be strictly quasi-concave), the following condition must hold: Use this condition to check the convexity of the indifference curves for each of the utility functions given below. Describe the precise relationship between diminishing marginal
